Which Success Center facts can affect Hunter matches, and when?

Hunter reads your My Business facts to score opportunities. This article says which facts change your matches. It also says when you see the change.

Facts that change your matches

• Your trade. The NAICS codes in your trade tell Hunter what kind of work you do. See How do I read and change Your trade codes?.
• Your programs. In Basic Info, you select programs that describe the owner, for example woman-owned or veteran-owned. Hunter uses them for set-asides. A set-aside is a bid request that only a certain type of small business can bid on.
• Where you can work. Your states in What you can take on feed the Where filter. See How do I update what my business can take on?.
• Your capability statement. Hunter reads the one that you upload in the Roadmap step. Hunter uses its text to rank your matches, and it suggests facts. See What a capability statement adds to your profile and How do I verify my capability statement?.

Hunter can also use other facts, such as your services and the jobs you did, to rank your matches. Hunter does not use every fact to score a match.

When the change shows

When you save a fact, My Business tells Hunter about it. Hunter then updates its view of your business. This is not instant.

If your matches did not change after some time, read Why a profile change has not changed your matches yet.

What does not change a match yet

A suggested fact counts only after you click Yes, that is right. See How do I review a proposed fact and see its source?.

How the filters use your facts

On the Opportunities page, the Filters panel marks the values from your profile with the tag "from your profile". The panel does not select these values for you. The button Reset to my profile clears your filter choices and the search words. See Reset filters to your business profile.
